a while ago I said I was watching Austin for their numbers to go down and Florida for their numbers to go up.I knew the states had their own pages, but I didn't know the graphs. I will have to look more closely at that.
I liked that they were separating the cities within the state's page. I am also watching Austin, Texas because they require masks and seem to be compliant. They also have a low number of cases and in theory, if masks are effective, this should remain low and they should be one of the first cities to report no new cases over the course of a couple of weeks just like Iceland has.
Technically, even though I am still iffy about China's numbers, wearing masks is an automatic thing for everything contagious over there. Maybe their numbers have some legitimacy and masks are beneficial.
I would actually like to see some evidence this is helpful too because it really seems like the easiest solution to this situation. Wearing a mask is really a mild inconvenience.

we will see how all of the other sensationalized predictions turn out. Fortunately, this is not going to become an endless debate and there will be a verdict soon.
